my biggest hole that i have dug is about 4 feet in length....pretty wide and pretty deep.....if i planted 5 seeds in this hole would the plants still grow big and produce a large yield? or is it 2 small?

Um... those 5 seeds... you aren't going to throw them at the bottom of the hole and cover it up, are you?
You should first germinate your seeds on moist paper towels... then you should plant those on a small pot... then, when bigger, you transplant those into your hole.
That's the way I would do it... I don't know if anybody else here wants to jump in and add something to this or correct me...
Best
you can plant them straight into the ground,but mice could dig them up, they may rot, lots of problems, if its spring time cold soil is the main problem.
if you do it,soak them 24 hours in a glass of water ,then plant them into moist ground.
The hole size depends on the strain, i have mine 6 feet apart,and they still touch alittle, but some strains dont branch much at all.
well it cant hurt the plants thsat much if the branches touch does it?
i wouldn't put that many plants in a hole that size. if it gets crowded they don't get enough light and their roots will get tangled. basicly they will fight for the smae light and same water and nutrients and they won't grow ass well as if they were apart.
the more they have the better they will be.
ill probely jsut plant 2 or 3....also when planting seeds outside i can sut plant them rite in the soil rite?
you can but like mole was saying uit's not a very good idea. they can get eaten by animals or rot. and they will not have as good a chance of germination if you just plop them into the soil out side. what ever you decide to do make sure you soak them in a glass of water for 24 hours before you do anything. you can germinate your seeds ina wet paper towel. if you do that just watch for a little tap toot to come out them plant it in a grow medium. you could go straight to soil but i like little pete moss pucks. you have to expand them with water then put the seed down there. but this is all you're cll. they are your seeds and you'r potential plants.
well ive been preparing my grow ground for some time now...digging holes and mixing soil so when spring comes the grow site will be prepared...so all i have to do to germinate is place my seeds in a glass of water for 24 hours? what does this do anyways? also is there some sort of simple way of increasing my chances of my plants becoming female? since im growing about 10 plants
if you really want to start them in the ground, they will germ sooner if you soak them in water first, alot of indoor growers soak the seeds first,and when the tip of the root shows, they plant them. some people lay the seeds on wet paper towels too, leaving them someplace warm tell they sprout.
You would have better germ rates if you planted them in small containers and kept them warm intell they sprout, just put them outside after they sprout if you dont have grow lights.
try not to stress them to avoid getting more Males and hermies.
